Lot's Of Sewing!

It has been a busy day here. First off, Richard is feeling better, not sure what it was but he went to work today anyway. At least he looks a lot better.

This morning after getting Richard off to work and the boys off to school, I did my morning feeding and cleaned the house. Then I started sewing....I did 3 more Turkey Track blocks, that makes me a total of 6 of them finished. I'm loving these blocks.

I also pinned this top on the frame and quilted three passes on it. I think I will try to finish it tomorrow if I can. This one if for my 1yr old nephew for Christmas. Just trying to get them all finished so I'm not rushed. I have some customer quilts coming up so I need to get these out of the way. It is hard to tell much about the quilting in the photo but I am using a panto called "cotton" I will show a photo of the design when I get the quilt finished.
Oh and I started sewing the sashing strips on my Stacked Coin quilt too! I didn't take a photo of it yet, but hopefully I will have that top finished tonight or tomorrow!!! I like how it is looking, it reminds me of Spring!!! :)

Hopefully I will get more sewing done tonight. I will be up really late! Andrew had a school field trip today to Louisville Ky. They left the school at 8:30am and should be back around 2AM!!! Yep! 2AM!! I will pick him up then. And he has school tomorrow, he will be sooooo tired! But they sent a note home stating that they had to go to school tomorrow or they would not be allowed to go on anymore field trips! :)

2 am!!! WOW! and he still has to go to school! I think that after the teachers have to teach these poor kids that have been up all night, they might change their minds next time!
I really like your turkey tracks blocks. What size is the block? It looks like a nice size block!
I can't wait to see Donkey on his quilt! Glad Richard is better!

I'm glad Richard is feeling better. I hope you feel alright tomorrow after being up so late tonight. Also hope Andrew has a good trip to Louisville. The Turkey Tracks are so pretty! You must really be fast to get three done at a time.

I'm really liking your Turkey Tracks blocks. I have seen other patterns called Turkey Tracks but yours is much prettier. Where can I find your pattern?

I am loving those blocks too! I would like to know where AI can find the pattern too. (Although my next quilt will be Bonnies new mystery quilt!) Tell Andrew to have fun!! I imagine he will do OK the next day at school, kids seem to have way more energy than adults!
